Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled (As From My Window I Sometimes Glance) by W. Eugene Smith was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in December this year. The price achieved of USD 1,280.00 (€ 1,157.11) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by W. Eugene Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Walk to Paradise Garden, 1946 in October 2016 with an auction result of USD 52,500.00 (€ 47,892.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Untitled (As From My Window I Sometimes Glance) von W. Eugene Smith kam im Dezember diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.280,00 (€ 1.157,11) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von W. Eugene Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Walk to Paradise Garden, 1946 im Oktober 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 52.500,00 (€ 47.892,72).
